That’s what prompted the officer to stop him. Officer Pownall said Jones pulled out a loaded 9 millimeter gun.

“I don’t believe none of that,” said Crosby, “I can’t tell you what happened, all I know is I watched my son get shot on national TV.”

Immediately after the fatal shooting, Police Commissioner Richard Ross told reporters, “there is some video footage that show some things that give us pause.”

The commissioner acknowledged surveillance video from a nearby business that shows officer Pownall shooting David Jones in the back as he was fleeing.

“We have to put an end to this now, because other cops could look at this like ‘Oh, I could just kill someone and nothing is going to happen to me.’ This is his second time shooting someone,” said Isaac Gardner who organized the rally.

Eyewitness News reach out to the Philadelphia Police Department for comment on the status of the investigation into the officer involved shooting.

The department declined to comment, citing this is an ongoing internal investigation.
